GitLab CI build fails because of missing step

When I read the error message in the last build correctly, the protocol files (which are not included in the package) are not downloaded before the tests are run and, hence, the tests fail.

Running bin/bob_dbmanage.py ijba download before running tests should solve that issue. Yet, I am not familiar with the GitLab CI interface, so I assign this issue to @amohammadi (feel free to assign it further).

Reassigned to @tiago.pereira

@tiago.pereira I think is already doing that in the CI process.

Hi,

I remembered that I had to customize the download and the upload methods of this package since the default implementation in bob.db.base depends on sqlite artifacts.

To make it work in the nightlies I explicitly added the command bin/bob_dbmanage.py ijba download (was the only place necessary).

Since now we have a very generic CI script, I think it is not a good idea to add this command.

I think we should patch the all option in bob_dbmanage (https://gitlab.idiap.ch/bob/bob.db.base/blob/master/bob/db/base/manage.py#L21) to make it download the content from Janus.

What do you think?
